EA has announced a new strategic partnership with Xbox, although details of this were a bit slim on the ground.

What we do know is that four new sports games, UFC, NBA, FIFA 14 and Madden 14 are being in development using a new engine known as EA Sports Ignite. So far there is no indication why this is news, after all we expected these games to be on all formats.

As for the engine, there will be 4x more calculations per second in a player decisions, as well as 3D crowds and on Xbox LIVE a daily stream of content.

Xbox One was announced as having an exclusive mode within Ultimate Team on the new console but that was about all there was to say before the trailer was revealed.
